Chapter 5

Sleeping With the Enemy

Kelly stood in the mirror, primping. She was looking rather lovely in her little black dress. She couldn’t believe that she was actually going to go out with a cop. She had thought about changing her mind and calling off the date more than once. Paranoia was a big part of the reason. Dante had called Kelly the very same night of their crazy chase and they had been talking every day since. During every one of their conversations, he practically begged her to let him take her out. Although Kelly had continued to turn him down, he kept trying. Every single time he asked her, she would say no and he would go on to tell her about his day and that he couldn’t wait to see her again.

She wasn’t sure what made her have a change of heart, but she did. In all of the days of talking to Dante over the phone, she began to care for him. Yes, he was a cop, but he was also a man, a fine and muscularly built one at that. She enjoyed listening to his phone voice; it was deep and sexy, and the more she heard from him, the more she wanted to get to know him. As she slipped on her boots, she realized how much she was looking forward to seeing him again.

A call came in on her cell phone. It was Dante. He had just caught an arrest and was going to be late. Kelly told him to call when he was done and she would meet him somewhere. She wouldn’t allow him to come to her apartment. There was no way Kelly could be seen with a cop. Just as she had ended her call with Dante another call came through on her cell. Kelly thought that it may have been Dante calling her back, but it was a collect call from Kevin.

Kelly suddenly realized the chaos she would be creating by going out with Dante. It was a police officer who had put her brother behind bars. She knew the hatred that her brother, and that she herself felt toward police officers, and she was about to go out with one. Hell, she had been talking to one every day, listening to his innermost thoughts. And as much as she hated to admit it, she craved to hear his voice again and she desired very much to be near him. Kelly breathed a deep breath and accepted the collect call from her brother.

“Wha’s good, sis?” Kevin asked, as usual.

“Uh, what up, bruh, everything is cool, yeah, yeah, and you, you good?” Kelly asked, all in one breath.

Kevin knew his sister. Something was wrong. She was way too quick with her response. It almost sounded as if she had a gun to her head. Kevin became tight, instantly. The thought of any harm coming to his sister and him not being there to help was a constant thorn in his side.

“Yo, you sure you aight?” Kevin probed, with anger and frustration building in his voice.
